We normally put VDISK swap devices on virtual addresses 100 and 101. For each of these addresses, our PROFILE EXEC checks for the existence of a device at that address. If it finds one, it leaves it alone. If not, PROFILE EXEC calculates the size of a virtual disk as a percentage of memory size, observing the limit of 4,194,296 blocks, and defines it with a DEFINE VFB-512 command. PROFILE EXEC then uses QUERY VIRTUAL DASD to find all VDISK's defined to the guest and formats them with SWAPGEN. All Linux guests have a shared read-only 191 disk, so they all have the same PROFILE EXEC. This allows us to have three different flavors of swap disk, all of which are eligible for LGR: 1. Defined dynamically as a default percentage of memory. 2. Defined in the directory with COMMAND DEFINE VFB-512 at a specific size. 3. Defined in the directory on 3390 DASD. The typical guest has two swap disks at a percentage of memory and one on 3390. Dennis O'Brien 2 Sep 1945 - The Japanese Instrument of Surrender is signed on board USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay.
